Back by popular demand, we are having the "Beescaping" Workshop on March 1st. Join Palm Beach County Beekeepers Association (PBCBA) for a Beescaping workshop on Saturday March 1st, starting at 9:00 AM, in west Lake Worth.

Melissa McGuaghey-Moyroud from Lorax Designs and Richard Moyroud from Mesozoic Landscapes will once again host this workshop. Melissa is an expert on Florida’s native and bee-friendly plants, and is the conservation chair for the Palm Beach chapter of the Native Plant Society. Richard is the Audubon manager for Bingham Bird Sanctuary in Palm Beach and also one of the founders of the Palm Beach Native Plant Society. Melissa and Richard will share valuable insights on selecting plants to enhance your garden to support honeybees.

This is a 3-part workshop and you can participate in 1 or any of the specific parts:

Apiary Hands-on:
